Theology Photoshop Contest

Over at Radical Congruency, Justin is calling for you to use:

…your graphics editor of choice (Photoshop, Fireworks, Windows Paint, a scanner, a digital camera, ASCII characters, whatever), and create a composition that illustrates some point of theology or Christian history that you are aligned with.

The rules:

  • Entries are due by December 31, 2005
  • You can only make fun of your OWN theology. The point is not to mock others, but to enjoy a good laugh at ourselves.
  • Trackback or comment on this post, with a link to your entry. If you don’t have a blog, you can email your entry to me (justin d0t baeder at gmail d0t c0m).
  • You can use copyrighted images in your composition as long as it is clear that they are intended as parodies, which is allowable under fair use

Have fun!

While not exactly a reflection of my own theology (I actually… dislike Veggie Tales), I thought you might get a kick out of this one.

    Jamie,
    Do you dislike the Veggies theology or just talking vegetables? I must agree, however, that McLaren looks cooler on the cover of that book than Tomato. (I don”t know why, but I thought I”d refer to them by their last names.)

    LOL I like Veggie Tales cuz they”re cute – plus I had "His Cheeseburger" on my list of wedding tunes – do you remember that Jamie? LOL That was a fun wedding. I”m going to try my hand at this and see what I can come up with.

    Very cool. Appeals to the huge overlapping demographic of McLaren readers and Veggie Tales viewers. Nice work :)

    Heh… Funny thing is, I like McLaren, but despise the Veggie Tales.

    Peace,
    Jamie

    I initially felt the same way about Veggie Tales, but after being forced to sit and watch it with my kids ad-nauseum I’ve found it does start to grow on you
